Guest guest Posted December 29, 2006 Report Share Posted December 29, 2006 Oh wow, Bill, they're thinking MS? Are they pretty sure it IS MS and the tap was done just for the final word? Or... ? When will he have the results? He has a darn good "teacher". How old is he? If he has MS, will it be the two of you in your families with MS or are there any others?

Guest guest Posted February 11, 2007 Report Share Posted February 11, 2007 I do remember your niece and think of her from time to time. It's good to hear how well she's doing, Bill. It's always wonderful to hear how she's doing. You remember that my younger "half" brother (the third of five of my younger siblings from my dad's third/last marriage) lived here with us for a few years as we raised him? He moved out a year ago this past New Year's Eve and, after a change here and there, he landed about three miles from us. In December he'd called me from ICU to say he'd attempted suicide the night before. He'd taken 150 to 160 mg of Oxycontin, crashed during the night, about an hour they had him stable again, the next day his didn't see much more than a bit of light, his thinking and speech garbled, and slowly these things improved. Physically... Josh is okay. He's still here and still going. Mentally? I don't know what to say. Well, he has fallen in love and that has him lit so brightly these days! I'm going to keep reading for news on your nephew. I hope accurate answers come, come soon and that he does wonderfully with anything he finds! It WILL help, if he has MS, to have you there. I've no answers for myself, but I know what an incredible difference my Mother has made. I can only imagine how difficult it would be without her. My FIL has outlived all of his family. Every relative of his, parents, grandparents, and so on... they all died before fifties. Most in their thirties. He's the oldest of twelve siblings, some passing on a while ago. Joe is 65 now and I'll bet he has a while to go. ) Challis MS-Bill wrote: I don't know if you remember me telling about my Niece that tried to kill her self but Dennis is her husband. I kind of hope he does not have it but if so I hope he can deal with it. He has it in his head he will probably die in his 30's because his mother died when she was 30 from her diabetes. He just did turn 30 this year. He will do fine if he take care of his health troubles. He does awful with that though. My niece has a good job with an insurance company Conseco and she has done so well with her new job and she is also making a good salary these day's. Judy and I are very proud of . She is like a daughter to us. Bill [sPAM] Bill Re: my day on the 25th Bill, well the day will be different for sure.

Guest guest Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 I'm starting to wonder what is wrong with me OR is it the MS groups I join? No one seems to talk to me. I did meet Kate in the Trigeminal neuralgia group. and she is very sweet. I feel totally out of it with people that have MS. Do I somehow show my age and progression of my MS without hardly saying a word? So, therefore, I don't fit in this group either? Just because I don't still walk and am not thirty-something, does that leave me out of every group?

Guest guest Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 Hi Kathi you found the right group' Do you have both MS and Trigeminal is that rough having both? I have both type 1 diabetes and MS. I had my diabetes hit me in April of 93 and then my MS in Aug of 99. I sometimes have a hard time telling if my MS is my trouble or my diabetes. I can always tell when my diabetes is messing with me mostly when I eat too much. I always feel it in my feet. My feet feel like they are burning. My MS hates hot weather but I love it. What gives your MS the most trouble? Are you in a wheelchair or can you use a walker like I do? Bill [sPAM] Bill Re: my day on the 25th Bill, well the day will be different for sure.

Guest guest Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 I'm sorry you feel that way. We just seem to chat about this and that...usually unless a specific question is raised, heaven knows what will come up. While I cannot speak for everyone here, I don't believe anyone would deliberately snub anyone else here. Join in the conversations and mingle...we're really a very friendly group! And as for age and condition, I can still walk, for which I am truly grateful, but age? I am old, n is older still...or are you thinking you're too young? Neither applies, we're all ages, all stages, and even all religions, and undoubtedly all political ideas as well. Just mingle and you'll feel at home in no time!

Guest guest Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 I took a few steps a couple months ago, but I don't walk any more. Yes, I also have trigeminal neuralgia....it is lying dormant right now, but often it flares up just enough to remind me that I am not free. It hangs around in the wings, ready to strike. I sometimes feel I have too much with my broken arm, torn rotator cuff, partially ruptured disk, tendonitis in my left arm (2 places), severe pain from my curling toes, and just the horrendous things I deal with from the MS affecting my hand not opening all the way and being unable to pick up my feet most of the time. When the TN is bad, I don't want to live. It's not always unbearable and I usually manage everything....and even have a smile on my face.

He'd taken 150 to 160 mg of Oxycontin, crashed during the night, about an hour they had him stable again, the next day his didn't see much more than a bit of light, his thinking and speech garbled, and slowly these things improved. Physically... Josh is okay. He's still here and still going. Mentally? I don't know what to say. Well, he has fallen in love and that has him lit so brightly these days! I'm going to keep reading for news on your nephew. I hope accurate answers come, come soon and that he does wonderfully with anything he finds! It WILL help, if he has MS, to have you there. I've no answers for myself, but I know what an incredible difference my Mother has made. I can only imagine how difficult it would be without her. My FIL has outlived all of his family. Every relative of his, parents, grandparents, and so on... they all died before fifties. Most in their thirties. He's the oldest of twelve siblings, some passing on a while ago. ....

Guest guest Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007  No I absolutely hate it. Because of our financial situation we have to keep the heat on 50. So we are more than ready for spring or at least warmer temps. Its not snowing any more I don't think, but the winds are between 20-30mph with higher gusts and they are saying drifts from 2-4 ft!

Guest guest Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 Thanks...........I lived for my art. Kathi [sPAM] Bill Re: my day on the 25th Bill, well the day will be different for sure. Usually we got up and went to Brownsburg to see his neice and nephew and had lunch there and played. This year I will see if my brother and his family will be home. they may go to my sister-in-laws family. If not my aunt invited me over there. But I'm afraid it's going to be way too hot for my anywhere I go. I will go to my parents house for a while too. I bought a lemon cheesecake to take over. So I won't be home alone much. Unless it's too hot everywhere. Then I'll come home. I'd rather be myself than too hot and getting vertigo. Which I woke up with some today. First time in MONTHS have had any inkling of vertigo. I'm not too happy. It makes me even more mad at STeve...lol Thanks for thinking of me Bill.

Guest guest Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 You CAN get Social Security Disability Benefits (same $$ amount) at any age if you have put into the system and/or a deceased parent has, in the case of a minor. The current NEW Retirement ages are now 64 and 67. Guess who used to run medical centers, federal, and bill these systems ALL the time? Many low income Medicare retirees in the USA are also eligible for SSI, Supplemental Security. Love, n Rojas5915@... Re: Bill's nephew -- my day on the 25th> > > wow! Now thats a snow storm!

Guest guest Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 we can't set our furnace that low, it only goes to 55. We live in a very drafty old brick farm house (it's nearly 200 years old) at the end of a dead end road. Those winds were terrible !! - there is nothing but empty fields on 3 sides of us to break the wind. There were small drifts in the corners of a few window sills and at the bottom of the front door. We also have fuel oil heat. On an average cold day, we burn about 10 gallons a day and with fuel at $2.39 a gallon, that comes to $23.90 a day for heat on a non-windy day and that's with the temp set at 65. Yesterday we had to have to have used twice that amount of fuel. The fuel oil heat is why our rent is so low. Otherwise, no one could afford to live here year round ! Our bedroom and the living room are on the side that was getting hit with the wind yesterday. I was wearing a long underwear top, a T-shirt, a sweat shirt, long john bottoms, pair of jeans and sweat pants and a jacket and I was still cold. Good thing I don't have to go anywhere today - there's a 5 foot (or taller) snow drift behind my car a ........ in Michigan nne~?! Huh? REally 50 degrees in your house? That can't be good!

Guest guest Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 I was able to get Social Security when I was 42 or 43 - whenever it was I was approved for disability. Can't one of you qualify for SSI or SSDI ??? a ...... in Michigan You can't get Social Security until you are 62. Then you loose a percentage of it for not waiting until 65. I will be 62 in Oct.
